Best Answer

Yes; and as well no! Most of the poems are in fiction; they are composed in imagination. While some of the poems are non-fiction; some of the poems of D.H Lawrence are for instance non-fiction. Even you can hold on the poem of A. L. Tennyson, "In Memoriam" to be a non-fiction to some extent!
